My take from the Smith hearings: To be a GOP senator today, you have to be a lying piece-of-shit, who puts loyalty to party & our lying piece-of-shit president, above their oaths to the Constitution & their obligations to tell the truth & do what rights to the American people! Repost if U agree

Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor. Donors make huge profits while workers get shafted. Repeat. This is not a coincidence. It's a political-economic system that's been corrupted by design.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media. Airlines have merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Trump’s and his real base of support — billionaires, Big Oil, Big Tech, defense contractors, & Wall Street — are looting the country at an unbelievable rate. They are pumping money into the Nov 3 midterms because this election may limit what they can get away with moving forward. Know the stakes.

Don't be fooled into thinking that a "free market" only exists when corporations get to "self-regulate" and do whatever they want. And don't be led to think that the government is "intruding" into the market when it crafts laws to protect the public. The real issue is power — and who has it.

The problem that Dems will have in 28 is that they must prosecute & reverse everything this administration did, but the GOP candidates will say “move on” and the complicit American media will also ask, “isn’t it time to move on?”. We have an obligation to make sure nothing like this happens again

So-called right-to-work (RTW) laws undermine workers’ ability to form unions. Unionization rates are clearly lower in RTW states—and since unions raise wages, that suppression lowers pay. The latest from @elisegould.bsky.social and Emma Cohn examines the economic impact of RTW 👇 1/7 #econsky

Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
